Malaysiakini | The Sessions Court today found Repco Holdings Bhd former executive chairperson guilty of instructing the purchase of the company’s shares to create a false impression of the share value. Counsel Edmund Bon applied for time to prepare his mitigation for a lighter sentence.
New Straits Times | During the defence stage of the trial, Repco Holdings Bhd’s former executive chairman Low Thiam Hock’s legal team headed by Edmund Bon argued that their client was not involved in share manipulation because the purchase order was merely to buy back the shares which were purportedly wrongfully sold by another company.
The Edge Markets | In Sept 1999, Low Thiam Hock was charged in a landmark case for market manipulation of Repco Holdings Bhd shares price under section 84(1) of the Securities Industry Act 1983. The Sessions Court found that the accused failed to create a benefit of doubt. Defence lawyer Edmund Bon said Low will appeal to the High Court.
